    Felindre, done it again!

    Totally agree,I dropped one of my 5000 XTEA,s on the kitchen floor and damaged the motion shaft,sent it off Monday morning and got it back the following Thursday as good as new at a very reasonable cost,great service :)

    Pinning down your hooklength and / or mainline?

    Recommend me a new rod holdall
